ankle support and carry on.
The 661 ankle brace worked for me. Also keeping moving on the ankle makes the bruise really interesting

Get a PS3 and GTA 5 to keep you sane.

I now how you feel mate, it looks like I will have at least 3 months off bikes next year and 9 months or more off the MTB.

Whatever you do try not to eat loads while watching Jeremy Kyle. Get down the gym and work your upper body and legs on the machines. That shouldn’t have any affect on your ankle. Your cardio will suffer buy your strength should help with that when you’re back on the bike.

Well given the current weather you could have picked a worse time to do it.

Broke my wrist just into summer and not ridden a bike for the last 4 months 🙁

Had 4 months of from Feb to June after Fibula fracture. August had knee debridment so two weeks off bike. Back to 10/15 mile rides Untill December 21st then it’s meniscus repair and Microfracture for Osteochondritis dissecans. Articular cartilage separated from the bone I think it is. And apperantly it’s 6 weeks toe touch weight bearing and them horrible hinged knee braces for 12 weeks. Ah well oxycodone for Christmas 🙂

I ripped my knee cartilage, no running, cycling or swimming for 9 months. Did go from nothing to a 95kg bench press though….

Wow.. you couldn’t benchpress anything at all? Not even a crisp packet? You must’ve been weak 🙂

I’m 4 weeks into 12 (minimum) off the bike at the moment with a separated shoulder, probably one of the most painful injuries I’ve had so far.

AC joint rupture here… consultant said 2-3 month!!! I decided to ignore him and did 5 day mountain biking holiday in the pyranees after 3 weeks but have gone back to being ‘good’ for a bit more of the allotted – there’s only so far I will push my luck – how long can you go without crashing back on injured limb?
